Thanks for sharing this information on the forum because it will go a long way in helping many people who has no idea about this because with the increase in technology alot of people don't even know what is happening as their phones are been tapped and almost everything that they do is known and they have been victims of unfortunate situation simply because of ignorance from things like this, I believe that this is an eye opener as it will make us become more security conscious especially with our phones.
We should always be careful of the kind of people that we give our phones to because there are allot of people who are computer guru's that they don't even need your passwords to get access to your phone and do what ever that is in their minds so keeping our phones safe from others too can go a long way
Many of these tapped lines were a result of goodwill from people to either assist someone to make calls or to browse the internet, and the rest, after that kindness, is a story without them knowing how their information leaks to the public. Another thing I have discovered is the way we grant permission to apps we download access to the camera and mic on our phones, and these also sometimes cause a breach of our privacy.
My friend told me about her observations she made on her phone one day, that she was just seated doing something, and she noticed a quick flash light at the top of her phone screen, and she looked and it was her front camera. she was puzzled at what happened and became furious because that was the front camera and how come it flashed a light when it is not on and she had to checker phone and she noticed an app was put on and she went further to check permissions and she noticed the app requested for permission which she granted at initial download and immediately, she deleted the app and began to diasble other apps permission on camera and mic.
To further be on the safe side, one needs to deactivate the mic and camera access on the front page of their phone and unblock it whenever they want to make calls or receive calls, thus would help keep them safe and not allow apps access to their conversations and pictures or cameras to say.
